    Is this mouse any good? I've been waiting for it to go on sale since January, but gave up and bought a Logitech G500.

    BTW, please let me know if this type of posts are not appropriate here. Saw it on REDFLAGDEALS and thought you all might be interested. I'm posting it on the m14x forum as well.

    I'm a die-hard Razer fan, but I hear good things about TactX...

    Looks like a G9/G9X. And the TactX Keyboard is pretty kewl. It looks like a G550 or G15.

    It is a rebranded Logitech G9... which is a good mouse, but you can find better mice.

    It is a fine mouse if you prioritize Alienware branding and AlienFX over anything else. But you should look elsewhere if you prioritize mouse performance over aesthetics.

    That's good to know. I like my G9x.

    It seems like the TACX mouse has been on sale often lately. I'm thinking of getting my wife an M11x and will see about getting one of these to go with it.
